What's our generation's nation-building, major infrastructure project? It's housing
Brad Carr is the chief executive of Mattamy Homes Canada. Prime Minister Mark Carney has an ambitious agenda, supported by the provincial premiers, to get Canada building more homes. This is good. The matter requires urgent, national attention to help more Canadians afford their own homes while building our economy. We have to be conscious of how our country is falling short right now compared with what the country was once able to do. Canadians have been talking about this a lot lately in terms of nation-building projects. Where's our generation's Canadian Pacific Railway or St. Lawrence Seaway? The answer: A townhome might not have a lot in common with a multibillion-dollar infrastructure project, but it does if it's one of tens of thousands. This is the kind of ambition the country needs. But we're not going to get to where we need to be unless all governments help by providing faster approvals and cutting government-building costs. It's going to take a nation-building effort to unwind decades of stasis. Removing interprovincial trade barriers would add 30,000 annual housing starts: CMHC Toronto sixplex policy 'disappointing,' Federal Housing Minister says I'm encouraged by the federal government's proposed measure to eliminate the federal portion of the sales tax on new homes worth up to $1-million bought by first-time buyers, with the GST rebate phased down as the home price approaches $1.5-million. But it's not enough. With a few key changes we could improve the GST policy to make it fairer to consumers, no matter what stage of the buying process they're in or where they live in Canada. First, Ottawa should apply the rebate at the closing of a home, not at the time of purchase. Right now, if someone bought a home under construction in early May, before the tax cut kicks in, but they don't close until after the cut is implemented, they won't receive it. This is creating confusion for buyers and challenges for builders who will have to explain to homebuyers why they will not receive the GST rebate, but someone who bought just weeks after them will. By applying the rebate to the closing date instead, we can create immediate certainty and motivate people to act now. Stimulating demand in the short term is critical. Secondly, for the next 24 months the sales tax rebate should be expanded to include everyone buying a new home, not just first-time buyers; this time-limited change in policy will help incentivize demand at a time when housing sales are at a more than 30-year low. We can't build more homes if we aren't selling the ones already under construction. This temporary expansion will also allow the government to study the impact to home sales and the federal treasury – while giving Canadians much needed assistance to buy a new home. What you need to know about Ottawa's proposed GST cut for first-time homebuyers Additionally, while we want to make it easier for young adults to buy their first home, many Canadians are also struggling to afford a different home to fit their changing needs. It's tougher for young people than it was for my generation. But what about the person who bought a small condo a few years ago and now needs to buy a bigger home for their growing family? Or the senior who needs to downsize for one reason or another. Both situations would free up supply for another buyer, in turn helping more Canadians find a home they can afford. Finally, home prices vary a lot across the country. A $1-million luxury home in Saskatoon costs a lot more in other markets. For example, the average price of a new home in the Greater Toronto Area is $1.12-million. So, someone buying an average home in the GTA will get less of a rebate on their federal sales tax than someone buying a luxury home in places like Saskatoon for $1-million. Ottawa should apply the rebate toward the first $1-million of the price of a home, so that Canadians in higher-cost regions of the country benefit as well. Taking these three strategic steps, as well as the provinces agreeing to match the federal sales tax policy, would go a long way toward making all kinds of housing more affordable, while driving economic growth. This is especially important at a time when in the GTA alone, nearly 41,000 jobs and $10-billion in investment are at risk because of weakening home sales. The new federal government is nothing if not ambitious. Let's go big together.

Create Account The premiers' summer gathering in Muskoka will also feature a Tuesday meeting with Prime Minister Mark Carney, as trade talks with the United States are expected to intensify. Most of what the premiers are likely to discuss stems from U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs: Trade negotiations, the direct impact on industries such as steel and aluminum, the increased pushes to remove interprovincial trade barriers and speed up major infrastructure and natural resource projects to counteract the effects of tariffs, as well as Indigenous communities' concerns about them. Day 1 of the premiers' meeting Monday involves discussions with Indigenous leaders including the Assembly of First Nations, the Metis National Council and the Native Women's Association of Canada. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Carney himself is fresh off a meeting with hundreds of First Nations chiefs, many of whom have expressed concerns about their rights being sidelined as the prime minister looks to accelerate projects in the 'national interest.' Some of the priorities premiers are pushing include pipelines and mining in Ontario's Ring of Fire region, and chiefs have said that must not happen by governments skirting their duty to consult. Read More Ontario Premier Doug Ford, who has served for the past year as head of the Council of the Federation, is host of the meeting and said in a statement that protecting national interests will be top of mind.

'This meeting will be an opportunity to work together on how to respond to President Trump's latest threat and how we can unleash the full potential of Canada's economy,' Ford wrote. Trump and Carney agreed in June at the G7 summit to try to reach a trade deal by July 21 but Trump recently moved that deadline to Aug. 1, while telling Carney he intends to impose 35% across-the-board tariffs on Canada that same day. In a television interview broadcast Sunday on Face the Nation , U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said about 75% of all goods from Canada and Mexico enter the United States tariff-free under a trade deal with its two neighbours. But Lutnick made it clear the White House wants more from Canada. 'Canada is not open to us,' he said. 'They need to open their market. Unless they're willing to open their market, they're going to pay a tariff.' This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Lutnick also said Trump intends to renegotiate the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement next year, when the free-trade pact is slated to undergo a joint review. 'He wants to protect American jobs,' Lutnick said. 'He doesn't want cars built in Canada or Mexico when they could be built in Michigan and Ohio. It's just better for American workers.' RECOMMENDED VIDEO Carney has said Canada is trying to get an agreement on softwood lumber exports included in the current round of negotiations with the United States. British Columbia Premier David Eby said he intends to raise the issue and others of particular importance to B.C. at the meeting. '(We want to) get access to the same level of attention, for example, on the softwood lumber as Ontario gets on the auto parts sector, (and) that we get the same amount of attention on capital projects as Alberta is currently getting in relation to their proposals,' Eby said last week in Victoria. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Alberta Premier Danielle Smith has been making a big push for new pipelines, but said during a news conference Friday that her focus would also be on premiers working together to address the tariff threat, including interprovincial trade. 'I was really pleased to sign (a memorandum of understanding) with Doug Ford during the time he was here during Stampede, and other provinces are working on those same kind of collaborative agreements,' she said. 'We need to do more to trade with each other, and I hope that that's the spirit of the discussion.' Smith and Ford signed an MOU earlier this month to study new pipelines and rail lines between provinces, and both premiers also talked about wanting Carney to repeal a number of energy regulations like net-zero targets, the West Coast tanker ban and a proposed emissions cap. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Ford has also taken a lead role on increasing interprovincial trade, signing MOUs with several provinces and enacting a law to remove all of Ontario's exceptions to free trade between the provinces and territories. Nova Scotia's Tim Houston is another premier banging the drum of interprovincial trade, saying the trade war is forcing action on it. 'We're seeing the benefit of working together to respond to economic threats from the U.S. by breaking down internal trade barriers and opportunities to expand in other international markets,' he wrote in a statement. Ford has said the premiers will also talk about emergency management, energy security, sovereignty and national security, health, and public safety. The premiers have also been pushing the federal government to reform bail laws and Carney said last week that legislation will be introduced in the fall and he expects to discuss the issue with the premiers on Tuesday. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. The premiers' summer meeting also signals a changing of the guard, with the role of chair of Council of the Federation moving between provinces annually. But after Ford is no longer chair, he's not expected to take too much of a back seat on all of the aforementioned issues. He is still premier of the most populous province, has built a strong relationship with Carney, often singing the prime minister's praises, and has done frequent American TV interviews making the case for increased trade over tariffs. Those network appearances, in part, earned him a nickname of 'Captain Canada' — a persona he used to massive political benefit. Ford made the fight against tariffs and Trump the central part of his re-election campaign and voters returned him to government with a third consecutive majority. — With files from Wolfgang Depner in Victoria, Keith Doucette in Halifax, Lisa Johnson in Edmonton and Jim Bronskill in Ottawa.

Tariff deadline approaches, Palestinians killed while seeking aid, 20 years of same sex marriage in Canada, and more
We are now just days away from a trade deal deadline with the United States. Canada has until August 1st to cut a deal. If it doesn't, the Trump-administration is threatening steep tariffs on many Canadian exports. The U.S. commerce secretary says free trade with Canada is alive and well. But even if a deal is struck, it is likely some tariffs are here to stay. Also: It's been one of the deadliest days in Gaza for Palestinians seeking aid. Dozens are dead after a large crowd gathered around a UN convoy carrying food. It comes as Israel's military plans to step up its ground offensive in the territory. And: 20 years ago today, Canada made it legal for same sex couples to get married nationwide. But while legalized same sex marriage is a significant civil rights victory - advocates say the fight for true equality is still ongoing. Plus: Hong Kong businesses targeted for pro-democracy view, empty crown land in B.C., and more.
